    Hi-

    I'm posting this in an effort to start some conversation about hard drive replacements in the new Sony SZ series.

    I am trying to figure out how to get the old (initial) hard drive out to put a new Hitachi 100 Gb, 7200 RPM hard drive in. Could anyone help me out? I have removed (when the laptop is flipped on it's backside) all three of the bottom side screws and the middle screw in the middle of the backside. I do not see any other screws to remove. The casing now seems loose (which it should), but I don't feel that the keyboard is loose or anything.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Ej
